Because they know some of us haven’t forgotten. By the same token, unlike Kerry and his “Nixon’s War” BS some of us also remember that it was just as much LBJ’s war as it was Tricky Dick’s. Think about that when we consider Hillary and her calculated stand on Iraq.

Raven,

Still, the Kissinger as secret advisor thing is pretty weird. That one jumped out at me.

He is still a pretty high profile name. Why were they hiding him?

Oh, by the way, I have the original soundtrack 33 rpm (remember rpm’s???) of South Pacific.

One of my purchases as a teenager.

ummm…the Broadway original cast recordings originally came out on 78s … I recall singing along with them as a kid to my aunt’s disks.

This is the kind of pissing contest I love to watch! No matter what the Republicans try to do to destroy civilized life, *ilson and the Prof are here to remind us of the finer things.

And speaking of South Pacific, what a celebration of liberal values! Anti-racist, anti-fascist, flat-out giddy over the use of power and resources to enhance the common good.

I’ve got the movie in my library. Sounds like a good time to watch it again.

As dab from CT reminded us last night, maybe we need to start saying “Wag the Dog” before it happens…

Professor Foland, I think you’re absolutely correct about that. I don’t think they have any more old Osama tapes to leak, what else does the WH have left except Iran?

Bird Flu. Just watch.

Woodward: Late last year, he had key republicans up to the white house to talk about the war and said, “I will not withdraw even if laura and barney are the only ones supporting me.”
Is the military his personal property, for him to ignore all advise? He sure sounds like it.

“Right up there with ‘Its just a number’” is also in competition with Bush’s “Iraq will be a comma in history” (paraphrasing from memory).

And in the history books, Bush will be the colon.
